Love this ♥️! What a delicious way to learn our American history! Bravo 👏 to "Live from Monticello"! I was blessed to have visited Monticello at age 17 with my parents and brothers, traveling all the way from North Jersey!
If I had a time machine, id go back to July 2-4, 1776. And just sit in the corner, no sound at all, and just watch. It'd be so fascinating. The heat of the day and the fresh air going thru the open windows, horseflies pestering them, arguments and disagreements flooding the floor. It could get heated at times. Hancock was chosen as President of the Convention for a lot of reasons, one of them being that he had a good voice and could keep the peace among his people. It'd be so cool to hear exactly how they talked, what they talked about exactly, and how it's shaped the world's history
Has the FBI apprehended and interrogated the man on the right yet for his involving in the events of January 6th 2021? He openly supported and advocated the "insurrection" that happened in the U.S. Capitol that day. Or is he being given a pass?
That was how they wrote back then, all the way up to mid 19th century. I've seen a letter from 1865 dated as the year 1,865. Said like a number. Kinda weird but hey things change over many years, one of the most prominent being language
